We have used the dynamically constrained phase space coalescence model to study the production of the exotic state $X(3872)$ based on the hadronic final states generated by the parton and hadron cascade model (PACIAE) with $|y|<1$ and $p_T…
Exclusive hadronic B-meson decays into two-body final states consisting of a light pseudoscalar or vector meson along with an eta or eta' meson are of great phenomenological interest. Their theoretical analysis involves decay mechanisms…
Hybrid mesons occupy a unique position in the hadronic spectrum, offering a valuable insight into the non-perturbative nature of the glue field. Hybrid states with exotic $J^{PC}$ quantum numbers, such as the $1^{-+}$, $0^{+-}$ and…

We extract to high statistical precision an excited spectrum of single-particle isoscalar mesons using lattice QCD, including states of high spin and, for the first time, light exotic JPC isoscalars. The use of a novel quark field…
We explore the existence of $D \Xi$ and $D^* \Xi$ molecular states within the one boson exchange model. We regularize the potential derived in this model with a form factor and a cut-off of the order of $1\,{\rm GeV}$. To determine the…
In this work we investigate the existence of bound states for doubly heavy tetraquark systems $ \bar{Q}\bar{Q}'qq' $ in a full lattice-QCD computation, where heavy bottom quarks are treated in the framework of non-relativistic QCD. We focus…
Inspired by the $T^+_{cc}$ signal discovered by the LHCb Collaboration, we systematically investigate the doubly heavy tetraquark states with the molecule configuration $[Q_1\bar{q}_2][Q_3\bar{q}_4]$ ($Q=c$ and $b$, $q=u$, $d$ and $s$) in a…
We study the two-baryon system with two units of charm looking for the possible existence of a loosely bound state resembling the $H$ dibaryon. We make use of a chiral constituent quark model tuned in the description of the baryon and meson…
After constructing the possible $J^P=0^-, 0^+, 1^-$ and $1^+$ $QQ\bar{q}\bar{q}$ tetraquark interpolating currents in a systematic way, we investigate the two-point correlation functions and extract the corresponding masses with the QCD sum…
Stable bound quantum states are ubiquitous in nature. Mostly, they result from the interaction of only pairs of particles, so called two-body interactions, even when large complex many-particle structures are formed. We show that…
The structure of exotic resonances that do not trivially fit the usual quark model expectations has been a matter of intense scientific debate during the last two decades. A possible way of estimating the size of these states is to study…
We study the interaction of two $ D^* $ and a $\bar{K}^{*}$ by using the Fixed Center Approximation to the Faddeev equations to search for bound states of the three body system. Since the $ D^* D^* $ interaction is attractive and gives a…
In this presentation we discuss the generation of hadrons with an exotic quark content and hidden charm emerging from three-body interactions. To be more specific, we have studied the $KD\bar{D}^*/K\bar D D^*$ and $ND\bar{D}^*/N\bar{D}D^*$…
We report on our progress in studying exotic, heavy tetraquark states, $qq\prime \bar Q\bar Q\prime$. Using publicly available dynamical $n_f =2+1$ Wilson-Clover gauge configurations, generated by the PACS-CS collaboration, with pion masses…
The exploration of energies above the open-flavor threshold in the meson spectra has led to the appearance of unexpected states difficult to accommodate in the naive picture of a bound state of a quark and an antiquark. Many of such states…
The Born-Oppenheimer approximation is one of the very successful tools for solving the hydrogen atom problem. The experimental discovery of hidden heavy flavor tetraquarks, $Q\bar{Q}q \bar{q}$ ($Q=c,b$ and $q=u,d,s$), provides great…
The exclusive processes are considered, where a point-like source of heavy quark-antiquark pairs $Q \bar Q$, e.g. their electromagnetic current, produces a pair consisting of a heavy quarkoniumlike exotic meson (tetraquark) or baryon…
At present work, we systematically study various bottom-strange molecular pentaquarks to search for possible bound states and resonances by adopting one-boson-exchange model within complex scaling method. According to our calculations, we…
The mass of the $1^{-+}$ exotic meson, created with hybrid interpolating fields, is explored at light quark masses approaching 25 MeV ($m_\pi / m_\rho \simeq 1/3$). Access to such light quark masses is facilitated by the use of the Fat-Link…
